After race at Gowran Park Sat, 4th Oct, 2014 (1st)

He was unlucky last time when he slipped up. Paul had slipped in the previous race on Blue Cannon and I said to him to let this lad drift off the bend. When he slipped up [at Navan last Saturday] I said to him what happened to the drifting and he said if he'd drifted any further he would have ended up in the hedge!. He jumps well. He looked around at the last and nearly threw it away. He's a nice horse but doesn't really like heavy ground.

After race at Roscommon Tue, 9th Jul, 2013 (1st)

He never travelled and Davy was never comfortable or happy on him. He said he didn't do anything well today, but it's not too bad to win when things don't go right. We'll paddle along with him for the summer. He goes on that ground.

After race at Downpatrick Wed, 6th Mar, 2013 (1st)

Job done! When you miss out on two bumpers you wonder about going again but I like him and I think he ran into a good one last time (3rd at Fairyhouse behind Milan Bound).
